2 LAN connection on 1 PC?

Been trying to figure out how one of my desktops PC connected to two ISPs — Smart Bro and PLDT myDSL. The myDSL is connected to a router and hooked up with the other PCs while Smart Bro is hooked up directly into this one desktop. Now, if we wanted to play Warcaft 3 on the network, only my laptop and the other PC can join so I am thinking that by adding a second LAN card and hooking it up to the router, this PC will also be part of the network.

Is that possible? I haven’t tried it though. If both can’t work at the same time, maybe I’ll just disable one while using the other.

Any better arrangement for this?

    or much easier,go buy yourself a router with a built in port switch for your smartbro, connect the smartbro to the wan slot of the router, connect the two pc AND THE PLDTMYDSL anywhere on the lan slot of the smartbro router, turn all the device on, and access the settings of both router by typing the ip of the router on any browser to manually assign an IP for your both PC,try to learn about the DHCP feature of the router im sure every router has it. in that way you can specify which connection you want to use in any pc you have.If you will succeed on this, you created a small local area network with two pc involved
